That's my age, and I've never been married before. I'd like to, I just want to make sure it's the right person before I make what's supposed to be a lifetime commitment to someone. I date, I'm just not sure if I've found "the one" yet. People don't understand this...they ask me why I'm still single, when I'm going to get married, some ask if I even like boys (of course I do). Should I still wait for Mr. Right (Mr. Right meaning my best possible choice, I realize no one's perfect), regardless of how long it takes? What's your opinion of someone my age who's single?
Is 27 going on 28 a pathetic old maid?
Stop listening to all that cr*p! I married at 27 because I was freaked out about not being married...Family on me, friends asking, etc. So I married the wrong man just to be married. Knew it was wrong when I did it, but thought it was what I was supposed to do.Then a year and a half later, I divorced this man and joined that club. Learn from my mistake. I married the best guy in the world when I was 35. My biggest regret is that I didn't listen to my inner voice...I wish my second husband could have been my one and only husband!
Reply:No your totally doing the right thing so many people jump into things now.
Reply:There's only Mr. Right-Enough. But don't build your life around the idea of accumulating a husband as a sign of fitting into a perfect American lifestyle...many people are dying to get a divorce and right now live together but legally seperated because it's too expensive to live by yourself and seperate your credit. More complicated with children tossed into the picture.
Soulmates alway happen by accident. Just ask those that already have them.
Reply:your waiting for that "great love",,your perfect partner,,i think,,you'll find him,,if your happy with that, that's all that matters,,i admire,,someone who's secure enough in themselves to wait for the right person to come along to get married,,i mean,,it's really a miserable existence,,being married to the wrong person.......
Reply:I think you're SMART to be single at this age. Too many people get married way too young. How can they possibly successfully share in someone else's life when they don't even know themselves? Hence, the divorce rate is so high. It's good you're strong about who you are and know what you're looking for. When you do find him, you'll know and it'll be so worth the wait.
Reply:Look the people that want you to get married is probably because they also want you to be miserable like them. And that's how you'll be if you go for the next guy that walks into your life.
Reply:You are not an old maid-you are smart. Wait until you meet someone that is right for you. You will know when that happens. I wish I had waited until I was older. When you are older you know the right questions to ask such as: do you want kids, how many, what religion if any do you have, how do you want to discipline the kids, do you want to travel or live in the same state the rest of you life and so on.
Reply:Don't get married, especially for the wrong reason. I did it at 27 because I was feeling like you are. What a mistake.
Be 100% positive before you get married.
Reply:You are FAR from an old maid. You shouldn't think of marriage or kids until you are in your thirties. Your twenties is a time to live it up, go a little crazy wild, then at thirty start to settle down and raise your family.
Reply:I think when you finally realx about it and stop looking for someone to marry then it will happen naturally. Its like waiting on a pot to boil it never does while you are standing there. Be patient! GOOD LUCK!
Reply:Well, I am 27, going on 28. Let me just tell you that I was in an awful marriage. I am now remarried with a child in the middle. I wish i had done it right the first time. You are not old, and I hope you find the love of your life soon. As for people's comments, just ignore them.There is no rule that says you must be married by a certain age. Just be YOU. Do what YOU want to do. Live your life for YOURSELF and no one else. Be happy.
Reply:Not unless this 1508 and not 2008. You are not an old maid.
My opinion on someone your age (my age 28) that is single is that you got your education out of the way and wanted a career before you settled into the family role or you just haven't met the right person yet.
Reply:I don't think you are an old maid. I do think you should wait for Mr. Right. As in the one who is right for you.
Reply:You are absolutely doing the right thing by waiting. A lot of those who are asking why you aren't married have probably blown at least one marriage already. You, on the other hand, will have a very good chance of doing it right the first time. You're doing the same thing my wife did, and it worked well for her.
Reply:I think that you are wise to remain single until you have found "Mr. Right." You are NOT an old maid. You have plenty of time to find a man who is kind, hard-working, compassionate and just right for you. He is out there. Do not rush into a relationship because you think you need to be married now. It is quite possible that as you live your life, do what interests you and develop you career you will in the process naturally find "Mr. Right" without having to try or look very hard. He is out there and it is a good idea to just go about your life naturally enjoying what interests you knowing that when the time is right, you will find a great husband. The best way to attract the qualities you want in a mate is to be those qualities yourself. I found my husband 7 years ago while I was promoting a new business and we were both in the same line of work. We fell in love writing each other email. At first we developed a long-distance relationship then got married after 6 months dating and we have a wonderful loving marriage. We had our faith and family values in common and that helped me to know that he was right for me. We have a beautiful romance. Take heart and have faith in yourself, you will find your husband when the time is right. I believe that God has a unique plan for each person. You'll know in your heart when you meet this person, I believe that women can have a sense of the "rightness" of a relationship from the start. Follow your insticts and look for someone you feel you really could spend the rest of your life with. Ask yourself will this man make a good husband, father, soul mate? Is he honest, kind, and whatever other qualities are important to you. This is how I was able to find my husband by being honest with myself about how I felt. Hope that helps!
Reply:if you don't want kids you're fine. if you do, you should get married in the next two years. I don't want kids. I just got engaged at 25, I'll be married at 27.
Reply:Good for you! there is no point in settling down with someone just because you feel you have to and anyway 28 is still young. Please wait until you feel you have found that right person otherwise you will just be in a relationship where you are not happy and trust me you dont want that. You are still young and have plenty of time and you are NOT pathetic you are sensible.x
Reply:My opinion is that you are careful and maybe even picky, which is what you have to be if you want to be happy when you do get married! I think you know the answer to this question, maybe your clock is ticking, i know mine is, and I'm 25. Don't worry though, we have a LOT of time left on our clocks :)
Reply:No, its not.
Your completely fine!
Reply:Honey, I got married at the ripe old age of 32, and have been happily married for 14 years. Now, my younger sister is 44 and not married yet. She's beautiful, smart, attractive, vivacious, outgoing, fun, energetic, etc. Yet she still isn't married. She has her own life and is independent. She put herself through a Master's Degree. Yes, she worries about not being married but doesn't dwell on it. Tell everyone who asks you that you haven't found your "Mr. Right" yet but are working on it. You don't want to settle for "Mr. Right Now." One day when you aren't looking, he'll show up.
Reply:I do not think that there is anything wrong with that. 27 , in my opinion, is even rather young to be getting married; most woman do not tie the not until there early to mid thirties.
I know I would not want to get married long before then...I think everyone should enjoy life before marriage as much as possible, and when the time comes to get married, you won't have any regrets.
Reply:I think you are the most logical person in your circle of friends and family. Why rush into marriage when your not totally sure. Way too many people are pressured into marriage and it fails. I say stand your ground. Keep looking. Once you find mr right you'll be happy you waited.
Reply:nope
Reply:patience is a virtue - no kidding - you will know when "Mr. Right" comes into your life, you may even know the min. you lay eyes on him, as i did with my husband of 31 plus years. you cannot rush, these things. and as for what others think - do you really care? it is your life - take your own sweet time. oh and i wish i could be 28 again - you are no old maid! you are just fine do not let any one tell you different! hope this helps :)
Reply:yep
Reply:I was 27 almost 28 when I got married. I have a friend who married at 34. What ever you do, do not settle for anyone. This will be wrong for you and the person you are settling for. Next time tell those people to mind their own business. You will marry when you are good and ready and no one should make you feel bad about it.
Reply:No you still have time. Don't rush into it and make a mistake you'll regret down the line. And you're not old!
Reply:No way, stay single until you find Mr. Right. Don't hook up with a guy jsut cause you think you're running out of time. .
In my opinion, you're just a chick who's patient (and playing the field for as long as you can) and I respect that. I don't like the kind who rush and do things all at once. A girl these days has to take her time, figure out exactly what she wants, and let the men come to her! Don't go lookin' for 'em, let them look for you, because if Mr. Right is out there, then you know he's looking for his Mrs. Right, too. Players don't just stumble upon some random chick and decide that she's the one, the guy has to be looking for you, too. You know what I mean?
Reply:You are still young. It is unreasonable for people to expect you to be married based on your age. It is your life, and you have to make the decisions. If, and when the right one comes along, you will do what you have to do. Is it so bad to go through life unmarried? Ask the people who are part of the statistic of more than 50 percent of marriages end in divorce. Don't settle.
Reply:My step daughter married at 31, she met a lovely Italian while she was teaching in Italy. They are very happy and it's a nice situation for her. Don't despair there's someone out there for you.

Is "pancha" really a lonely old maid who's never been laid?
Seems like she has nothing better to do in life than support the criminals.
Is "pancha" really a lonely old maid who's never been laid?
What? Lonely old maid who never got laid-what kind of manure is that? What every lady who has remained chaste and unmarried-is for criminals?
That is low my friend-very low. I haven't heard around posts that your a big stud or that you give any girl any pleasure. I haven't seen it written anywhere here or in the bathrooms.
And yes-your going to get an earful if you were closer -I would pull your ear till you cried for mercy.
I don't support many things she has said or done. But I don't support that messages at all. Did she or someone attack you? And your retaliating- I understand that. I hope you have some excuse!
I might stick up for some women but "Bitterness" Your in the other class. Clueless and Classless. Get off your knees once in a while. Impostor lapper.
And Stumpo if that is your idea of a sophisticated lady--you need to get out of the strip bars.

When is a lady a old maid?
When she's over, say, 65 and still cleaning other people's houses. :-P
When is a lady a old maid?
From Muriel Spark's novel "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie", Miss Brodie said somewhere to her girls, the Brodie set, that she had passed her prime. We don't know exactly how old Miss Brodie is, thus, from the novel's context an old maid might be in her 35+ years of age, more or less.
Reply:She can be delicate and kind and not an old maid.
Reply:When she starts acting like one - getting in everyone's business, telling people what to do, and complaining about how she should have done this that and the other.
Reply:A "lady" can't be an old maid. The worst a "lady" can be is a "class act" and there is absolutely nothing wrong with being a class act. Married, single, divorce, widowed or anything else, a class act is a good thing.
However a "woman" becomes an old maid the minute she thinks she is one. If you look, it is obvious. In fact is as obvious as a fisherman stowing his tackle. It can happen at 20 or not at all but it is the woman's call. She makes the decision.
Reply:When the lady says that she is, takes herself off the marriage market, and stops caring if she ever gets married or not.
My Grandmother thought I was an old maid at age 20, because I had no immediate plans for marriage. Now, at 53, I am an old maid. I have worked hard for what I have, and I intend to keep it.
Reply:That would be after the Post-"M", when a person chooses to live as one pleases, without the reproductive demands. Most
older men still see the 'old maid' as a loaded revolver that one
picks up carefully.
Reply:A lady becomes an old maid the minute she stops thinking of herself as an available woman. The moment she starts believing she will never get married, she probably never will. As long as it's more of an "I don't want to get married; I want to live like I'm 20 for the rest of my life" kind of decision, she's not an old maid no matter how old she is. If, however, the woman has more of an "I can never get married because no on likes me and no one ever will so I might as well not even try" kind of attitude, then she is old maid, the moment she starts thinking like that. It is possible that there is the "one man" who can turn a girl's attitude around to start dating him and possibly marrying him, thus making her no longer an old maid.
Reply:I would say if she is old and obviously not married!!!
Reply:When she's about 50 years or so and has never been married.
Reply:It depends on how she acts, some one could be 100 yearss old but be young at heart, or an overstressed 20 year old. it depends on the person.
Reply:WHEN YOU ARE 6 FEET UNDER AND NOT BREATHING
Reply:When her face is printed on a playing card. J/k.
In the small town where I grew up, anything over 20 was considered an old maid. Myself, I think if there is such a thing it would be someone older than 50. I don't think it's necessary to get married if you don't want to, though.
Reply:When she has past the average marrying age without even a prospect. A few decades ago, most couples married at around 20, so a lady of 23 who was not married and not engaged was considered an old maid.
Now, however, when most people are marrying later and the average age of a first-time marriage is about 25, a lady can reach her late 20s or even early 30s (depending on her social circle) before being perceived to be an old maid.
That perception is, of course, when your aunts, your Mom, all your friends start worrying:
"Will Miss Julia settle down?
"What is wrong with Miss Maggie that no man wants her?
"Is Miss Claire secretly a lesbian but is afraid to tell us?"
The perception is when everyone around you starts trying to fix-you-up with everything single and swinging, even men you wouldn't touch while wearing surgical gloves and a HazMat suit, possibly even 'that cute little lesbian who works at the Auto Zone."
Old maid is such an ugly phrase... I much prefer spinster.

Reply:That would be after the Post-"M", when a person chooses to live as one pleases, without the reproductive demands. Most
older men still see the 'old maid' as a loaded revolver that one
picks up carefully.
Reply:A lady becomes an old maid the minute she stops thinking of herself as an available woman. The moment she starts believing she will never get married, she probably never will. As long as it's more of an "I don't want to get married; I want to live like I'm 20 for the rest of my life" kind of decision, she's not an old maid no matter how old she is. If, however, the woman has more of an "I can never get married because no on likes me and no one ever will so I might as well not even try" kind of attitude, then she is old maid, the moment she starts thinking like that. It is possible that there is the "one man" who can turn a girl's attitude around to start dating him and possibly marrying him, thus making her no longer an old maid.
Reply:I would say if she is old and obviously not married!!!
Reply:When she's about 50 years or so and has never been married.
Reply:It depends on how she acts, some one could be 100 yearss old but be young at heart, or an overstressed 20 year old. it depends on the person.

Reply:When her face is printed on a playing card. J/k.
In the small town where I grew up, anything over 20 was considered an old maid. Myself, I think if there is such a thing it would be someone older than 50. I don't think it's necessary to get married if you don't want to, though.
Reply:When she has past the average marrying age without even a prospect. A few decades ago, most couples married at around 20, so a lady of 23 who was not married and not engaged was considered an old maid.
Now, however, when most people are marrying later and the average age of a first-time marriage is about 25, a lady can reach her late 20s or even early 30s (depending on her social circle) before being perceived to be an old maid.
That perception is, of course, when your aunts, your Mom, all your friends start worrying:
"Will Miss Julia settle down?
"What is wrong with Miss Maggie that no man wants her?
"Is Miss Claire secretly a lesbian but is afraid to tell us?"
The perception is when everyone around you starts trying to fix-you-up with everything single and swinging, even men you wouldn't touch while wearing surgical gloves and a HazMat suit, possibly even 'that cute little lesbian who works at the Auto Zone."
Old maid is such an ugly phrase... I much prefer spinster.

At what age are you considered an "old maid" or "old batch"?
Batch meaning bachelor
At what age are you considered an "old maid" or "old batch"?
I agree with the others that believe this is an outdated myth. It has no place in the 21st Century. This represents a self-destructive mind-set that you choose or reject. I recommend rejecting it and seeing any person as 'complete' whether married or not.

Please tell me what you consider to be an old maid, Include your age if you don't mind.?
I'm getting married in two weeks for the first time. I'm 49. Never thought of myself as an old maid. My fiance, also never married, is 47. Never thought of him as an old maid, either.
Please tell me what you consider to be an old maid, Include your age if you don't mind.?
It's an old, outdated expression that comes from a time when women were considered incapable of getting along in life without a man. I don't think such a thing as an "Old Maid" exists anymore, outside of the minds of those women that THINK they can't get along without male companionship. I hate to see those women that are so obsessed with the concept of marriage that they don't pay attention to actually forming meaningful relationships with those people around them.

Reply:I really think the use of that word is passe. Women aren't so expected to get married and have a man take care of them, also MANY people are getting married later and later in live, like in their 60's and 70's. So, the short of it would be, I don't think there is any age I would consider a woman to be an old maid and the word itself is somewhat out-dated.

She was very close to her family and enjoyed such activities as teaching bridge and playing the stock market.

I swear off men, or want nothing to do with them.
I am polite and kind to them, but do not want a relationship or to marry. Is this a good way of becoming a spinster or a nun without telling the guy?

Im a 14year old maid of honor? What should I do?
The wedding is pretty low key, about 50 people on the beach and then to my vacation house. The Bride is my future aunt so i have known her only for about 2.5 years. What should i do for them. speach? present? girls weekend/bachelorette party (obviously i cant do that im 14)?
Im a 14year old maid of honor? What should I do?
you can ask the bride if you are going to do a speech and yes you can still do a girls weekend or party. have a spa weekend and if the other girls are over 21 tell them bring own alcohol and get yourself what you like... sparkling grape juice or something like that. see who has the craziest pajamas or who can come up with the wildest hair do. have fun with it and tell them that you are a bit young and still want to make this fun for everyone. i'm sure they will understand and have fun as well.

It was a spa party, The bride and her friends went to someone's house and there was a massage therapist, a person who does facials, a manicurist and a pedicurist and they all took turns getting spa services. It was wonderful and very relaxing for a stressed out bride.
Reply:Well, for starters you're in charge of helping the bride do everything she doesn't want to do, not to mention "slap" your "aunt" a few times, when she's about to have a nervous break down (obvioulsy I mean calm her down). Let's see, you can help her pick out the dresses. I was the maid of honor at my sisters wedding, and I didn't do a speech because the Best Man does that. But, if you wish, you could grab the two of them on the side, and say a little something nice, I did that, and they liked that. Usually, the mother and MOH (maid of honor) plan a wedding shower, and they make little gifts to give to everyone. As far as a present (shower) goes, I know for my sisters wedding I got all of the girls together and we got one big gift for her, which was cheap (not like cheap quality but cheap in money). Bachlorette party, there are a ton of things you could do (as I was only 19) I took 3 of the girls from the wedding to a Comedy Club. Do something that all can do, I suggest dinner, go t a party store, buy some items that say bride. Then talk to her friend whom, is older then 21, and tell her to plan another bachlorette party, where they could go to a club/bar etc. My sister did that, and the couple of us who were under age, still were able to go out and celebrate, and the older ones still got a chance to drink.
Hope that helps.

I don't think a present is required but you could get them something small, cheap but nice. (see if the registered anywhere)

Reply:Wow. She's really given you ALOT of responsibility for your age. My best answer would be to go to the local library and check out some books on weddings and etiquette so you will be the best maid of honor, ever. also, you don't have to do everything that the book says but, be sure to show up to all of the festivities on time and ready to take care of the bride and her needs. Just so long as they're not ridiculous. Definately hit the library.
good luck and congrats on such an honor!

My best answer would be to go to the local library and check out some books on weddings and etiquette so you will be the best maid of honor, ever. also, you don't have to do everything that the book says but, be sure to show up to all of the festivities on time and ready to take care of the bride and her needs. Just so long as they're not ridiculous. Definately hit the library.
good luck and congrats on such an honor!

There were 2 old-maid sisters... both virgins had a little problem?
It's Friday night and Gladys looks at Betty and says, "I'm not going to die a virgin... I'm going out and I'm not coming home 'til I've been laid!!" Betty says,
"Well, make sure you're home by 10, so I won't worry." 10 o'clock rolls around and there's no sign of Gladys.. 11 o'clock... 12 o'clock... Finally about 15 after 1 the front door flies open. In runs Gladys... straight to the bathroom.
Betty goes and knocks on the door, "Are you okay, Gladys?" No answer, so she opens the door and there sits Gladys with her panties around her ankles, legs spread, and her head stuck between her legs looking at herself. "What is it, Gladys?
What's wrong?" asks Betty.
"Betty, it was 10 inches long when it went in... and 5 when it came out. When I find the other half you're gonna have the time of your life!!"

"i heard you play earlier tonight, but after i left i just had to come back and tell you that you touched my soul. every note you played reached me in a personal and emotional way that i haven't felt in years. i want to take you home with me, cook for you, pamper you, and make love until we're both exhausted."

17 year old maid to be beheaded?
Please read this news paper article, and tell me what you think?
http://www.asiantribune.com/index.php?q=...
Also do you know anymore about the case, and what happened to her?
I heard that an unpredented outcry that the human rights commision is to be imvolved. So there is hope that she will be pardoned.
17 year old maid to be beheaded?
This is an extremely sad case. Like most maids who come to the ME, Rizana's family is probably extremely poor which is why her parents sent her to another country to work as a maid in the first place. The problem is that she lied about her age so that she would be able to get a work visa but she was actually only 17 when she came.
Apparently, the baby that she was feeding started choking; she didn't kill it but of course the parents want someone to blame. The problem is that they're blaming the wrong person. They should be blaming the government and themselves. Why didn't anyone notice that the girl was young? How can a 17 year old and a 23 year old (that's how old she supposedly was when she came) look the same? Couldn't anyone tell something was wrong? This is what irritates me about the system here. Why are such young girls allowed to come and take care of children? How much experience could a teenager possibly have? I'm in my twenties and I still don't feel comfortable handling a newborn and if I think back to when I was 17, I didn't even know how to hold a baby, much less feed it.
What happened was a terrible accident and that's all. I hope someone intervenes and does something because that young innocent girl does not deserve to punished for something that was out of her hands.
Reply:I wonder why there is no update and more attention from the media about this story.There was a case of 8 Bulgarian nurses convicted to death for injecting kids with AIDS in Libya and after more than 8 years and huge pressure from the European Nations and USA they was finally freed last month.After that even the libian president son admitted that the nurses were tortured into confessing.
Is very sad that things like this happen.
Reply:I'm not a lawyer, but in any murder case there must be a motive that drives the murderer to do so. The motive could be money, revenge, angry, etc. If the killer doesn't have a motive, he/she might be having mental illness or otherwise it's an accident. Does she have a motive to chock that newborn baby? I doubt it. I think it was an accident.
I don't criticize Sharia Law in Saudi (many have done it) but I'm very upset with that family for the following reasons:
- They hired her for housemaid, then why they employed her to babysit a newborn baby. It needs special skills. That family is just too cheap to hire a special babysitter for their newborn baby. So they must realize that this accident was partly caused by them too.
- Forgiveness is part of Islamic value. That family cannot get blood money anyway because that maid is poor. So why don't they just give the pardon to her? It will be highly rewarded in judgment day (of course, if they believe in it). Chopping that girl's head doesn't bring the baby back alive.
I sincerely ask that Saudi family to pardon her. This is a good chance to show the world the true value of forgiveness in Islamic world, because this case is widely covered by international media.
Ma'a salama.
Reply:The criminal justice system in Saudi Arabia is based on Sharia which is to say, a medieval system.
Almost every major Human Rights organization the the world has denounced Saudi Arabia for its use of torture to extract confessions and its mistreatment of foreigners and women.
Certainly, if this women is factually guilty of the crime then she deserves to be punished.
But whether this woman is actually guilty of the crime of which she has been convicted is unknowable because those who carried out the investigation and tried the case did not act in accordance with generally recognized standards of civilized legal procedure.
Reply:THAT CRAZY SH*T WOULD NEVER HAPPEN IN THE USA WHERE I LIVE. ACCIDENTS HAPPEN I MEAN IT IS TERRIBLE THAT A CHILD DIED BUT IF IT WAS AN ACCIDENT SHE SHOULDN'T DIE. HASN'T SHE BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH
Reply:Sounds like an accident. Is beheading appropriate for an accident?
Did the maid have any chance at proving her innocence? Or is this a case of the family demanding that someone pays for their loss?
Reply:So sad.....It's wired that the accident occurred in the first week of her work. So I assume since she can't speak Arabic so didn't understood the instructions moreover it's wrong to make a teenager take care of infant the mother is the one who should take care of the baby even if she sick she should get help someone with an experience……I hope that mams never ever let someone else take of their children . maids spoiled the children they don't educate, discipline or teach the children manners……because it's not their job it's the mother and father responsibility…….
the one who should questioned and take the responsibility is the mother who gives up her duty to someone else without knowing if this person qualified or not and whoever made the fake papers of the maid age should be punished.
Reply:This is a very good example of the grave outcome when you send a person from country A to country B when things go bad. Political and human rights issues will be significantly considered. It then becomes an international dilemma and may even strain ties. If she killed the poor kid and death is in the law of that nation, then may God have mercy on her soul.

An Old Maid in Granny Glasses- Why do Female Superstars Pose????
I`ve just seen a series of photos of one of the big female superstars who is never publicly seen without looking like a china doll.
Point is though this series was when she was reading for a role and she looked as she probably does when she is not posing.
Hair pulled back- tight. Granny glasses. No makeup. No smile. Sloppily dressed.
Why does Hollywood persist in adulating phonies? And why do phonies insist upon posing as sex symbols? Nastiness toward sex symbols.
Possibly it`s the duality of hating what you cannot have and do not possess. Thus you parody it.
Ugh!!

An old maid from Germany........?
named AIZ was about to die but was extremely proud to die a virgin. She had the cemetery caretaker make her a tombstone inscription which said " Here She Lies, The Virgin Aiz."
When she was buried , the caretaker couldn't exactly remember what she said , so he thought long and hard on what to carve on the tombstone, He then chiseled out "Here Lies , Devirginized"

WhAt Is An Old Maid With A 70's Hairdo Presenting Sport On UK TV?
I am of course talking about Gabby Logan. She has as much style as Carol Vorderman. That hairdo is straight out of a 70's Littlewoods catalogue.

Haven't a clue and they say us women are bitchy, you and dave s could give us a real run for our money, funny though! resigned, pay attention, he never said she's 70 lol!

Reply:, So, you could do better, Poof
Reply:She isn't an old maid, she is married to a famous rugby player and she certainly isn't 70. I don't think a hairstyle affects whether someone is a good sports reporter or not.

What is wrong with me? Am I going to end up as an old maid?
I'm a 22 yr old college girl and have never been on a date. I try to start conversations with guys, such as asking a question about classwork. They just answer it and move on. It's very frustrating and confusing. I've heard from many of my girlfriends that their friends (who are guys) find me attractive or "hot", and I'll randomly find that guys who I don't know exist ask about me. This was how high school was like also. I knew of guys who thought I was good looking, but only because other people told me. The only time a guy will talk to me is if I talk to him first. I am a very friendly person,sometimes quiet, but not shy. WHY DON'T THESE GUYS APPROACH ME! (I'd like guys opinions!)
What is wrong with me? Am I going to end up as an old maid?
Go out in a large-ish group with your girlfriends and some of their guy friends so you can interact with them in a relaxed environment but without the commitment of having to have one conversation with one person. Maybe have a couple drinks too.
It just sounds like you need to loosen up a bit. And if you think the guys are intimidated, then try some self-deprecating humor, like how imperfect this or that feature or trait is. Self-deprecation works like a charm.
And if you really want to talk to somebody, TALK TO THEM. Most decent guys are terrified of talking to really attractive women because they're so used to being shot down. Maybe with you they figure they might as well not even bother to avoid the humiliation of being shot down by *you*. So maybe you'll have to break through their shell or shyness or intimidation, but apparently if you don't do it, no one will. What do you have to lose?
Reply:ur like the 40 yr old virgin lol
Reply:well may-be it`s because you are to hot. guy`s sometimes shy away from you good looking girls. or you might have a squeaky voice..
Reply:First impression and appearance are areas that attracts any person before a conversation. Attractive, hot, good looking are just some areas that guys looks at. Guys are frightful of prominent family background, prestige, reputation, high class companions, heavy makeups etc.
You may want to change your physical outlook (eg. dress, hairdo etc) and places you frequent (eg. restaurant, posh outlets) to something more down to earth that matches the guy's interests. Probably wearing jeans, miniskirts, T-shirts, simple hairdo etc. like the rest of the gurls. Go for fastfoods, pubs etc. Blend in into their activities like going to outings, mountain climbing, hiking etc. Wish you the best soon.
Reply:Relax. Nature WILL take it's course and you WILL NOT end up as an old maid.
Reply:WELL. My bf told me that (because I had the same problem as you) that he was intimidated by me. He said that I appeared snotty (even though I wasn't) because I was so shy/quiet. That is what guys think. Or they might get the energy because you are quiet that you just aren't friendly or interested. So put off a different energy, smile alot, laugh alot, and talk to them (guys) more. Look interesting. My bf said that he thought at first that I just would answer with yes or no answers and not make much conversation back (even though I thought that I was). Just try to develop a more outgoing personality is all that I can say.
Reply:Some guys get intimidated by pretty women. Stand back and think about how you show yourself. Ask yourself if you make yourself approachable? Be flirtious, guys like to be flirted with. I can't speak for all guys, but I like when a woman approaches me. Be confident as well.
Reply:If you are actually 22 and have college friends, I'm certain they would have told you to change your approach.
Stop feeling sorry forself and relax.
Reply:A lot of times guys are intimidated by how good looking you are. They probably figure you are already taken, or that maybe you are a snob because you're "hot". Even though this is not the case, I suggest you continue to be friendly and even ask a guy that you would like to date to join you for a Starbuck's or something. I think it's time for you to make the move since the guys aren't!!! Good Luck!
Reply:Guys can be intimidated by pretty girls. Especially the shy guys with good moral background. They are afraid they might say something stupid and look like an idiot.
Reply:sorry I am not a guy, but maybe I can help.
well, this could be for any number of reasons. Maybe you are annoying, maybe you are not very attractive :S (no offense, I hope!!), maybe you are going after the wrong guy. Or maybe there is nothing wrong with you and it is just not your time yet. I was a late bloomer in the dating area. My problem was mostly that I was just too darned innocent/naive to be attractive to a guy. (I am also not that pretty and shy, which also contributed. I also asked a very close friend once because I knew she would be honest, and she said I didn't meet eyes very often. So I tried to meet people's eyes more often, and it worked!). I would recommend "How to Make Anyone Fall in Love with You" by Leil Lowndes (sp). It is on Amazon. The title sounds worse than it is! :)
When I was in high school, I watched the movie "Little Women" and a quote stuck out to me: "You only need one, if he's the right one." This is so true, and I married the first man I dated. (Not becuase I was desperate and I didn't just marry "the first guy that came along." The first guy just HAPPENED to be the right guy.) So there is still definitely hope for you!! Good luck! I remember being in your shoes and wondering if it would EVER happen to me. I remember MANY tear filled nights, just wondering.
Reply:Approach Guy's you are attracted too. Guy's love it when woman
approch them!!!
Reply:Give it time. It will happen. My daughter didn't date until after she graduated from college and is now happily married with children.
Reply:what????????????????????????????????
Reply:Wow...That sounds very weird. I can't believe every guy is too shy to ask you out or even carry on a conversation with you. Is there something you're not mentioning? You're not obese are you or some other thing that stands out? Without ever having met you, it's hard to say what's up with this. Do you have pretty friends and do they get approached by the guys? If you do and they do then something else is awry here. Step back and see how your girlfriends react to the guys and maybe you'll find an answer there. Also ask a close friend if you got a bad rap somehow and if you did try to clear it up. It is the nature of society to gossip and that can put anybody on the "outs" for some reason. Find a friend and ask her point blank....but be prepared for honesty and be willing to change. (Change is really the yardstick of maturity). Good Luck!!
Reply:Hi Zoey. You will probably get smarter answers, but here is one from the heart. I believe there are some girls who have such a strong spirit that it almost acts like a force field that keeps boys away. This deeply feminine spirit is a beautiful, powerful, but sometimes an intimidating reality for men. It represents everything that both attracts them, but scares them at the same time. Are you lovely and desirable? Absolutely. In fact, that's part of the problem because it is exactly that part of you that generates the feminine spirit. But don't worry, just like hormones, the levels will adjust soon and all will be well. So keep on believing in yourself, Zoey. You are a rare and magical woman. The man who is not afraid of that is just around the next corner.

Reply:I'm sure there is nothing wrong with you. Don't rush it. It will just happen when the right guy comes along. Next time a girl friend tells you about a guy who is interested, ask her to arrange a date for you - start with a double date.

Young men are typically shy, or assholes.
Wait for a shy one.

What is wrong with me? Am I going to end up as an old maid?
Go out in a large-ish group with your girlfriends and some of their guy friends so you can interact with them in a relaxed environment but without the commitment of having to have one conversation with one person. Maybe have a couple drinks too.
It just sounds like you need to loosen up a bit. And if you think the guys are intimidated, then try some self-deprecating humor, like how imperfect this or that feature or trait is. Self-deprecation works like a charm.
And if you really want to talk to somebody, TALK TO THEM. Most decent guys are terrified of talking to really attractive women because they're so used to being shot down. Maybe with you they figure they might as well not even bother to avoid the humiliation of being shot down by *you*. So maybe you'll have to break through their shell or shyness or intimidation, but apparently if you don't do it, no one will. What do you have to lose?
Reply:ur like the 40 yr old virgin lol
Reply:well may-be it`s because you are to hot. guy`s sometimes shy away from you good looking girls. or you might have a squeaky voice..
Reply:First impression and appearance are areas that attracts any person before a conversation. Attractive, hot, good looking are just some areas that guys looks at. Guys are frightful of prominent family background, prestige, reputation, high class companions, heavy makeups etc.
You may want to change your physical outlook (eg. dress, hairdo etc) and places you frequent (eg. restaurant, posh outlets) to something more down to earth that matches the guy's interests. Probably wearing jeans, miniskirts, T-shirts, simple hairdo etc. like the rest of the gurls. Go for fastfoods, pubs etc. Blend in into their activities like going to outings, mountain climbing, hiking etc. Wish you the best soon.
Reply:Relax. Nature WILL take it's course and you WILL NOT end up as an old maid.
Reply:WELL. My bf told me that (because I had the same problem as you) that he was intimidated by me. He said that I appeared snotty (even though I wasn't) because I was so shy/quiet. That is what guys think. Or they might get the energy because you are quiet that you just aren't friendly or interested. So put off a different energy, smile alot, laugh alot, and talk to them (guys) more. Look interesting. My bf said that he thought at first that I just would answer with yes or no answers and not make much conversation back (even though I thought that I was). Just try to develop a more outgoing personality is all that I can say.
Reply:Some guys get intimidated by pretty women. Stand back and think about how you show yourself. Ask yourself if you make yourself approachable? Be flirtious, guys like to be flirted with. I can't speak for all guys, but I like when a woman approaches me. Be confident as well.
Reply:If you are actually 22 and have college friends, I'm certain they would have told you to change your approach.
Stop feeling sorry forself and relax.
Reply:A lot of times guys are intimidated by how good looking you are. They probably figure you are already taken, or that maybe you are a snob because you're "hot". Even though this is not the case, I suggest you continue to be friendly and even ask a guy that you would like to date to join you for a Starbuck's or something. I think it's time for you to make the move since the guys aren't!!! Good Luck!
Reply:Guys can be intimidated by pretty girls. Especially the shy guys with good moral background. They are afraid they might say something stupid and look like an idiot.
Reply:sorry I am not a guy, but maybe I can help.
well, this could be for any number of reasons. Maybe you are annoying, maybe you are not very attractive :S (no offense, I hope!!), maybe you are going after the wrong guy. Or maybe there is nothing wrong with you and it is just not your time yet. I was a late bloomer in the dating area. My problem was mostly that I was just too darned innocent/naive to be attractive to a guy. (I am also not that pretty and shy, which also contributed. I also asked a very close friend once because I knew she would be honest, and she said I didn't meet eyes very often. So I tried to meet people's eyes more often, and it worked!). I would recommend "How to Make Anyone Fall in Love with You" by Leil Lowndes (sp). It is on Amazon. The title sounds worse than it is! :)
When I was in high school, I watched the movie "Little Women" and a quote stuck out to me: "You only need one, if he's the right one." This is so true, and I married the first man I dated. (Not becuase I was desperate and I didn't just marry "the first guy that came along." The first guy just HAPPENED to be the right guy.) So there is still definitely hope for you!! Good luck! I remember being in your shoes and wondering if it would EVER happen to me. I remember MANY tear filled nights, just wondering.
Reply:Approach Guy's you are attracted too. Guy's love it when woman
approch them!!!
Reply:Give it time. It will happen. My daughter didn't date until after she graduated from college and is now happily married with children.
Reply:what????????????????????????????????
Reply:Wow...That sounds very weird. I can't believe every guy is too shy to ask you out or even carry on a conversation with you. Is there something you're not mentioning? You're not obese are you or some other thing that stands out? Without ever having met you, it's hard to say what's up with this. Do you have pretty friends and do they get approached by the guys? If you do and they do then something else is awry here. Step back and see how your girlfriends react to the guys and maybe you'll find an answer there. Also ask a close friend if you got a bad rap somehow and if you did try to clear it up. It is the nature of society to gossip and that can put anybody on the "outs" for some reason. Find a friend and ask her point blank....but be prepared for honesty and be willing to change. (Change is really the yardstick of maturity). Good Luck!!

Pin the Tail on the Donkey, Tiddly Winks, Authors, Pit, Old Maid, Hearts, Canasta, Casino, Monopoly,?
or the Ouija board. Was one or more of these games played at your house when you were young? The "Authors" card game ( I think it was called) had pix of Longfellow, Whittier and other old time authors on the backs of the cards. The questions were: who wrote what? In 2008 I believe that few of us could play Authors let alone be interested. These days it all electronics, but in those days we had no idea of immediate gratification other than eating a popsicle or sucking on Lifesavers and yes, I realize that some consider the Ouija Board more than a game, but my Mom never had any trouble with it. Which one of these pastimes was your favorite?

Hi, I am genuinely looking for a lady who would be interested in allowing me to serve her domestically whilst I am dressed as a french maid. I am male aged 29 years old and live in Newcastle.

I am from Gateshead, Tyne and Wear UK. I am 29 years old and I have this intesnse obsession to serve a female or females whilst I am dressed as a maid. I long to do household chores worship feet etc and just don't know where to start in finding anyone else who would like to share this with me.

17 year old maid of honor?
I am getting married next summer and i want to have my younger sister be my maid of honor. The only problem is is that she is going to be 17 at the time and won't be able to participate in the bachlorette party activites and planning that sort of stuff since she will be underage. Has anyone else had an underage MOH and what did you do to be able to let them help out?
17 year old maid of honor?
I know this may be crazy but you don't have to have alcohol at the bachlorette party,
Reply:You can have a maid and a matron of honor - the matron of honor would usually be old enough to partcipate and plan that sort of thing. Or you could ask your other brides maids to collectively plan it since they probably understand your choice of MOH.
Reply:U want to make your younger sister a maid ???.
Reply:Can't there be bachlorette party activities that she can attend? I think it's great that you want her to be your maid of honor and I think that you should let her plan stuff she can be involved in.
Reply:you could do something with just you and your sister, like a night out or a spa day. my maid of honor and my bridesmaids are so different i did something different with each one of them.
Reply:You just don't do the drinking thing for the bachelorette party - booze doesn't make the fun, the company and activities do!
Reply:Technically, the maid of honor is supposed to be an adult. The traditional purpose of the maid of honor is that if you become incapacitated for any reason, then she takes your vows for you. A minor cannot do that.
Also, the maid of honor is the one who is supposed to plan an host your wedding shower. That is a lot of responsibilty (and potentially $$) for a 17 year old.
I would have her be a bridesmaid and appoint someone else who is "of age".
If that is not an option, then I would ask one of your older attendents to "act" as maid of honor even though your sister will be the "technical" maid of honor. Have them include and confer with your sister but put the responsibility of everything on them. OR, as mom to oversee it. (which means she'll end up doing most of it anyway)
Also, since you have given her such an important role in your wedding, it would be kind of mean to plan wedding festivities that she cannot attend. Your bachelorette party doesn't have to be something that she cannot attend. Instead of doing something that requires you to be 21 or older, why not plan a party that she can attend. You can go out with your "over 21" crowd separately. Let her help plan a great night out. Why not have spa day with everyone as a bachelorette party? Or how about a day at the beach followed by dinner and a show or concert? Is alcohol that important that it's worth excluding your maid of honor for?
If you think that much of your sister to make her your maid of honor, you will need to make some adjustments for her. If you don't want to do that, then you need to change her to a bridesmaid.
Reply:If you go on a bachelorette party on a boat (not that expensive) I think your sis can drink!
Reply:Are you set on going clubbing. An option might be to go to somewhere like Dave %26amp; Busters or Jillians - so your sister can come as well. Or start out at someone's house around 7pm and have some fun, then head out around 10, so your sister can at least hang out for a little bit.
Reply:I think you should definitely have your sister as your maid of honor. You could have a special dinner just for the gals and then have a slumber party or something. I know that probably sounds dumb but that's what we did for my wedding. We had so much fun too. We stayed up late, talked about guys, watched old movies, and ate all night long. The next morning we all went to breakfast. It was definitely one of the most fun times I had with all the girls. It was nice to just relax before the big day. :) Good luck with it all!
Reply:Actually I was only 17 when I was my sister's maid of honor. Let her help plan your bridal shower, take her with you to try on dresses. Let her help choose the other bridesmaids dresses and accessories. Obviously I wasn't apart of any Bachlorette party type activities but i didn't mind because i was an important part of everything else.
Reply:I was a JR. Bridesmaid in my sisters wedding when I was 16...I think the rule is if they are underage, it's JR. Bridesmaid...she'll be able to go to the wedding shower, and of course the wedding and reception, but of course the bachelorette party will be off limits unless you are doing a tamer version with dinner, or girls going away to a location.
I'm sure she'll understand.
Reply:My sister is my maid of honor and she is 16. It works out great. She can't go to the batchlorrette party... but she made a great DD for those of us that could. She was and is able to help with everything else and she has done a great job at it. Do no worry about the age. Your sister will understand completely. But she will be able to be there for everything else.
Reply:Not sure on the actual question but i dont think she can be a wittness for the signing of the marriage certificate as she is underage
Reply:Well she can particpate in the bachlorette party when you guys are haning at the hotel drinking and stuff half the fun of going out is the drinking and getting ready before hand with all you girlfriends anyway. I say let her bring a friend and they can drive you to the club (DD better safe than sorry!!) and they can go back to the hotel and hang buy the pool and watch movies while you guys are out. PLus they can go out to eat wih you and all sorts of stuff. If you make a weekend out of it they could participate in everything up until its time to go clubbing.
Reply:My fiance's sister was 16 when she was in her brother's wedding. She couldn't exactly plan the bachelorette party, but she planned everything else like the shower etc. It was fine.
Reply:A good time for all can still be had even though your MOH is underage. She shouldnt be left out because of her age. It could ulimately change your relationship if you two are really close.
I have been part of many wedding events and there have been a few with an underage MOH.
In these cases 2 parties were planned. Usually it was a combined effort with the MOH and the bridesmaid. A shower was planned for the same day as the bachorette party set for later that evening. Or a wedding shower one day and the party the next night.
It still turned out great and hey they received more gifts that way. However for obivious reasons there will be things planned for those of age. But the underage MOH also planned events that did not effect the wedding festivities.
A compromise is possible.

Old maid coming through....Scuse me?
Everyone I know seems to be married or getting married I'm 27 and still unmarried. Damnnn! I'm an old made why isn't anyone picking me. Even my crush has decided to marry someone. My life is sucking really really fast. Most of these people are in their mid to early twenties. I'm in my late twenties. Yikes!!!!!
Old maid coming through....Scuse me?
Well, if you're old, then I am positively ANCIENT. At 40 years old, I am STILL single! Never had a relationship fo longer than 18 months! And I couldn't give a TOSS about being an Old Maid!!!
Some people are just BETTER on their own. Others aren't and need a partner in their lives. So stop and THINK about things as they apply to you.
WHY do you want to get married? If it is JUST because everyone else is doing it, then that is probably the wrong reason! Is your crush someone that you GENUINELY want to spend the REST of your life with, no matter WHAT happens? If so, then you need to talk to him! If not, then why settle for someone who is not good enough for you!
27 is not an old age and you could still be married - and divorced - several times in the future with little difficulty. Have you ever stopped to think WHY you are still single? I have, and I know it is because I have yet to meet someone that I could love Until Death Do Us Part at the time that we wed...
Personally, I refuse to marry unlessI mean it for life. Okay, I realise that life doesn't always work that way and that things happen, people change. So what is meant to be for life is not necessarily so. BUT I will not get marriend for MAYBE! Besides, I am HAPPY as a single person! Okay, the sex life sucks sometimes, BUT I can do what I want to and I don't have to worry about anyone else's feelings. Until this changes, I will not get married.
Instead of worrying about what is right for others, think about what is right for YOU!! If you are still desperate to get married, then maybe there is something you need to change about yourself as a person, but I cannot comment on that without more information. But if you are happy with WHO YOU ARE and are NOT happy with the men in your life, why lead yourself down a path of misery just to be like everyone else!
I hope that this helps to put things into perspective.

If you really really really want to get married, stop thinking about it. If you obsess over it, it won't happen. Most people get divorced nowadays anyway. Give your friends about 2 years and they'll be back in the single life once again. I'm not being cynical either, that's just fact. There's a whole lot more to do in life than to be a wife and mother. Most people jump into that too quickly anyway. Marriage is sacred and shouldn't be taken lightly. Hats off to anyone who can make it work.

Is It Wrong to be a Spinster/Old Maid? (spiritual Q)?
Just curious religiously speaking is it ok these days and do people frown upon old maids who never marry?
Where there old maids in the bible?
Is It Wrong to be a Spinster/Old Maid? (spiritual Q)?
I don't think so. I'm going to be single the rest of my life and that's ok. I guess most would look at me as me an old maid. But not understand it because they say I am beautiful. How can that be? I wear a ring fire Opal ring on my married finger. The Lord is my Groom. There is no other.
Crazy, I know.
Weird, I know.
Blessed, you don't know. Hum.
Reply:No. Some people, for various reasons, choose not to marry. I have an elderly relative who is an "old maid", and I totally respect her decision. Marriage wasn't for her, and she had the good sense to know it. There's nothing wrong with deciding to never marry, or to never have children (I've made the latter choice).
Reply:I believe they were called Eunuchs, read Matthew 19:12, and no it is not wrong to be labled an old maid, as a matter of fact, it is related that God prefers your sole undivided attention, cuz when your married, you give that to your spouse!
Reply:No ma'am! God and Jesus both speak of men and woman, both living as single individuals and being a powerhouse for God should they choose! Actually, I revere anyone who has the will and want to do so. The only thing I would fear from it is when a person gets along in age, will there be anyone there for them to look after them and visa-versa?
Reply:I think unmarried women were considered prostitutes in the bible?
I hope it isn't wrong because I am 26 and unmarried and have no intention of getting married(in a church) I may marry for like tax or citizenship purposes if necessary.
Reply:Religiously speaking, the Catholic sisterhood, or nuns, are destined to all become old maids, unless you subscribe to marriage to "god". In Paganism, a crone is looked upon with great respect.
Reply:Actually, Paul encouraged singleness. He saw marriage as only necessary for people who couldn't remain celibate.
Reply:There is a "gift" of singleness!
It frees up your time to serve...The Lord!
Biblically speaking it is better...
(to serve the Lord)......................................
When your married your time is spent

Old maid was my favorite card game as a kid so i was wondering if there was a site where i could play it and/or other card games against other REAL users not computers. Uproar is no longer in service so that wont work.
